This artwork by Francis Sartorius achieved an unexpectedly high price at Sothebys in London in April 2010. In the Old Master Paintings and British Paintings auction, the work Portrait Of Goldfinder With Jockey Up sold for GBP 18,750.00 (€ 21,577.58) - well above the upper estimate of GBP 8,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Francis Sartorius - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Full Cry, which sold at auction in April 2015 for USD 81,250.00 (€ 72,791.61).
